Work Exprerience
Scuola
Leonardo da Vinci offers you the unique experience of living and working
in Italy. The Work Experience & Internship programme consists of three
stages:
-
First you have to attend an Italian
language preparation course with a minimum duration of four weeks and

Italian Language Preparation
You
have to attend a language preparation course with a minimum duration of
4 weeks. However, to attend the Internship programme, a proficiency
level of Italian is required. |
|
Professional Orientation
To
widen your professional knowledge, you get 20 lessons of specialization
in two weeks: you will acquire sufficient skills to start a period of
internship placement.
These lessons will be held during the last two weeks of the language
courses. |
|
Internship Programme
The
minimum duration is 8 weeks that can be extended up to 16 weeks (or as
long as your visa is valid). You may choose from several sectors listed
under unpaid experience. The position offered is influenced by your
previous work experience, education and level of Italian. Most of the
employ locations are in Florence, Rome, Siena or Milan. We assist you in
selecting the Internship company according to your curriculum vitae and
interests. We arrange your meetings with the internship coordinator to
plan your internship experience. We will help you with the interview
with the chosen companies. We will assist you to get the permit of stay
and to define contact agreement with the selected company. We will
monitor your internship experience together with the internship company.
During your Internship experience you will get an insurance covering
workplace accidents.
At the end of your Internship program you will receive a Certificate
stating the Italian proficiency and the acquired Internship experience.
Fields of intership: Tourism / Restaurant / Hotel management / Travel
Agency / Web design / Web marketing / Design / Architecture; many other
